" ‘You can avoid pneumonia and other serious results from a cold by taking Foley’s Aoney and Tar. It stops the cough and expels the cold from the system as it is mildly laxative. Refuse any but the gen- uine in the yellow package. E. A. Barker. Hunting the Maribou. Hunting the marabou is attended with great difficulty, as the bird pos- sesses wonderful cunning and often contrives to outwit the most skiliful hunter. With = laughable dignity it measures the ground between itself and its pursuer and takes very good care not to exhaust itself by too rapid flight. If the hunter moves slowly the bird at once adopts an equally easy pace, but if the hunter quickens his steps the bird is off like an arrow. It is very difficult to get within gup range of this calculating creature, but the natives adopt a novel means of capturing it, which the bird, with all its astuteness, is unable to compre hend and falls an easy victim. A tempting morsel of meat is tied to the end of a long stout cord, which the skillful hunter’ flings to a great dis- tance, as he would a lasso, the bait falling as near the fleeing bird as he can aim it. He then conceals himself hastily behind a bush or crouches low on the sand. The marabou, which al- ways Kkeeps its eye on the hunter, see- ing him vanish, quietly stops and de- vours the bait, when it is easily se- cured by the hunter, who runs toward 1t, colling the rope as he goes. Carlyle’s Recipe For Shirts. Here is an extract from a letter of Thomas Carlyle, in which he asks his sister to make him some shirts and sends the measurements, How many ‘women could make a shirt after them? “My Dear Jenny—* * * In the mean- while I want you to make me some flannel things, too—three flannel shirts especially. You can get the flannel from Alick if he has any that he can well recommend. You can readily bave them made before the other shirts go off. I have taken the measure today and now send you the dimensions, to- gether with a measuring strap which I bought some weeks ago'(at one penny) for the purpose! You are to be' care- ful to scour the flannel first, after which process the dimensions are these: Width (when the shirt is lald on its back), 2214 inches; extent from ‘wrist button to wrist button, 61 inches; fength in the back, 85 inches; length in the front, 25% Inches. ‘Do you under- stand all that? I dare say you will make it out, and this measuring band will enable you to bé exact enough.” Began With “D” Anyway. “An' when they gits to Italy,” goee on Bill, growin’ quite enthusiastic, as you might say, over th' idee, “he’ll have th' time of his life ruminatin’ roun’ them old palaces of the dogs. “Dogs!” I gasped. “Palaces of the dogs!” : ¢ “Doggles, then, I #’pose you might eall it,” says he, “if yow're 8o blamed pertiklar, though it ain’t spelt that way. It's spelt dogs, only with the .’ ” “Bfll Gladox,” says I, “for an uned- Jucated man you are th’ most ignorant I ever see. Do you mean to tell me you' ain’t never hear of th’ dodges of Venice that has been mayors of th’' town for th’ last hundred years or more?” . “No, I ain’t,” says;he, “an’ no one else nefther.

A The tendency of the German comle papers to employ continuously the same characters as ‘“producers of mirth” is the subject of an article in a Berlin paper by Ludwig Bauer, The wrifer mentions as the most conspicu- ous of the funny figures the absent- minded professor whose habitual um- brella losing proclivities have made generations laugh. This figure had fits origin at a time, he says, when the man of letters was a helpless person in the active world—a dreamer dwell- ing in realms away from the actual and therefore blind to his surround- ings. In this form he has been rep- resented In the comic papers. But Germany, he thinks, not the professor, has been and Is belng caricatured. The professor today must be a wide awake man, for sclence I8 no longer an is- land. These are not the days for sleep and for dreams.

The old mald is another of the stock figures, and -one of equal impor- tance 18 Mr. Newlyrich. Of the latter it is said: “He Is always full of fear and suspiclon. He knows that he has been misplaced, and he sways from side to side like a timid rope walker. This makes him really funny, and we must laugh at his antics.” Too Slow to Be a Soldier. In & room on the top floor of a large factory a boy was amusing himself by going through the bayonet exercise with a long handled brush in lien of a rifle. His boes, coming quickly upon him, gave him a box on the ear for wasting his time. The sudden blow caused the lad to lose his balance and fall down the hoist shaft, but fortu- nately he kept his hold on the brush, the handle of which, getting across the shaft, broke his fall and enabled him to grasp the chain, down which he slid in safety. The boss was horrified at the effect of his action and rushed breathless and gasping with fear down the eight flights of stairs to the base- ment, expecting to find a mangled body for which he would have to ac- count. He was, however, just in time to ‘see the lad drop on his feet un- harmed, so, recovering his self pos- session and his breath, he exclaimed: “Want to be a soldler, eh? Well, you're too slow for that. Why, man, 1 can walk down all those stairs quick- er than you can fall down the holst shaft.””—London Answers. Toward the Pole. Ice eight feet thick on the ocean and snow falling even in summer—such is the weather experienced in the polar regions. When the air is dry and still it is remarkable how low a tempera- ture can be borne with ease. One ex- plorer tells us that with the thermome- ter at 9 degrees it was too warm for skating. The summer weather in this | reglon is, moreover, in some respects pleasant and healthful. Within the arctic zone there are wonderfully col- ored sunrises and sunsets to be seen. They are both brilliant and Impressive. But the nights—the nights are monot- onous and repelling. A rigid world buried in everlasting snow, silent save for the cracking of the ice or the walil of the wind. Travelers in these re- glons experience many discomforts. The keen air causes their skin to burn and blister, while their lips swell and crack. Thirst, again, has been much complained of, arising from the action of the low temperature on the warm body. E Only Night Air at Night. Speaking of Florence Nightingale | and her efforts to. keep the world bealthy, it seems pertinent to. make special mention of her mission in be- half“of the open window at night. I the early years of her labors much un- intelligent opposition to this method of ventilation because of the supposed harmfulness of the night air was ex- pressed, but Miss Nightingale had one stock argument in support of her posi- tion, it being the question, “What air shall we breathe at night but night air?” It was unanswerable from her opponents’. point of view, even if it did not always convert them, but it did lead a countless number into saner ways of living and along the way to the present methods of‘treating tuber- culosis.—Boston Transcript.
